Our expert's notes

A screen-matched Detective Monthly Magazine "Who Killed The Widow Dobkins?" from Joel Schumacher's The Number 23. As a mystery unfolds, Walter Sparrow (Jim Carrey) was informed that the book he obsessed over was written by him. To prove it Walter's wife Agatha Sparrow (Virginia Madsen) showed him the contents of a box from an abandoned mental institution which is filled with various items, including the manuscript of "The Number 23," with Walter's name on it, as well as a set of Detective Monthly magazines with the same headlines as the stories told by Fingerling in the book.

Believed to have been created custom for the film this 98 page Shiram & Plath's Detective Monthly Magazine features a "Who Killed The Window Dobkins" headline with an illustration of a dead blood covered woman and a silhouetted murderer. The front cover also features an edition date of February 3rd, 1949, Vol. 6, No. 3. The contents of the magazine range from featured detective stories to headshots and rewards for fugitives. Due to production distressing and use this item displays some light wear but overall remains in excellent condition.
